"SPECIPIC'ATIOII forming part of Letters Patent No. 300,389, dated June 1'7, 1884.

Application filed December 24, 1883. (X0 model.)

10 wZZ whom it may concern;

Be it known that I, SAMUEL A. Moonn, of Bloomfield, iu the county of Davis and State of Iowa, have invented an Auxiliary Spout and Improvement in Pumps, of which the following is a specification.

My object is to prevent the annoyances and accidents occasioned by the water that drips from pump-spouts upon the platform to make it sloppy, slippery, unsightly, and dangerous at times to persons operating the pump or walking around it.

My invention consists in the construction and combination of an auxiliary spout with pumps of various kinds, as hereinafter fully set forth,

Heretofore auxiliary spouts have been adj ustahly connected with pumps to convey drippings from the fixed spout back into the well.

My improvement consists in forming a return-spout integral with a pump-spout,as l1ereinafter fully set forth, in such a manner that the two spouts can be jointly and rigidly fixed to a pump to discharge water outward into a bucket hung upon the end of the spout or a vessel placed underneath when the pump is operated, and to cut ofi the flow of water suddenly when the motion of the pump ceases and convey it back into the well.

Figure l of my accompanying drawings is alongitudinal half-section of my duplex pumpspout, in which Arepresents the main or discharge spout, and B the auxiliary or return spout, formed integral. with the spout A. The spout B projects forward on the under side of the spout A and extends rearward, and is inelined downward in such a manner that it can be readily connected with a tube, C, on the outside of the pump, to convey the water that enters its front end hack into the well, as illustrated in Fig. 2.

I claim as my invention 1. As an improved article of manufacture, a discharge spout for pumps having a cut-cit and return spout formed integral therewith, for the purposes set forth.

2-. The combinati on of a duplex pump-spout, A B, with a pump, and an auxiliary tube eX- tending from the rear end of the part B downward, to convey drippings hack into the well, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.

SAMUEL A. MOORE.
